4.1980
年8月31日,不受波兰共产党控制的团结工会成立,这被东欧史界称为民众摆脱共产独裁统治迈向自由的第一步。波兰抛弃共产专制统治的导火索是“一名格但斯
克造船厂的女工抱怨食堂肉价上涨被开除”,在瓦文萨
(WALESA)的领导下,船厂工人罢工抗议,进而发展成为全国范围一千多万工人罢工示威活动。波兰共产政府曾于1970年血腥镇压工人的反抗。1989
年东欧剧变,在民众的自由意志与历史潮流面前,共产政权方面的雅洛察尔斯基无奈的同意举行圆桌会议。和谈结果,决定在波兰实行民选政府,瓦文萨于1990

10天游行,要求重新评价1968年“布拉格之春”的呼声日益高涨,捷共领导班子被迫辞职下台。12月初,全国继续爆发大规模的游行。要求取消宪法中关于
捷共的领导地位和必须用马列主义理论对每个公民进行政治义务教育的条款。1990年4月,捷克斯洛伐克改为“捷克和斯洛伐克联邦共和国”,实行联邦议会选
举。原捷共最高领导人胡萨克、雅克甚因当年支持苏军入侵捷克斯洛伐克共和国而被开除,并受到法律追究责任。
7.1989年12月,罗马尼
亚共产独裁者齐奥塞斯库命令枪杀坚持“人民的军队为人民”的国防部长瓦西里‧米利亚,并把警民冲突中警察对居民开枪、造成多人伤亡的蒂米甚瓦拉事件污蔑为
民众“闹事”,明白真相后的军队与布加勒斯特广场上聚集的民众一道决定反对齐奥塞斯库,占领各政府机关。12月25日,军事法庭判决齐奥塞斯库夫妇犯有屠
杀罪和非法拥有大量来源不明财产罪,并于当日执行枪决。罗马尼亚共产党政权正式倒台。获得民主的罗马尼亚经济得到良好发展,2006年罗马尼亚人均GDP

党制。 1992年3月阿尔巴尼亚进行第二次议会大选,
社会党(前身是阿尔巴尼亚共产党、劳动党)失利,宣告阿尔巴尼亚共产党统治的倒台。之前,在1967年开始,由于阿尔巴尼亚共产党施行无神论暴政,禁止了
其国内的一切宗教信仰,包括穆斯林70%, 阿尔巴尼亚东正教20%,
天主教10%,所有清真寺和教会在被关闭,并且禁止宗教仪式。经过民主力量的长期努力,在1990年11月, 阿尔巴尼亚重新恢复个人的宗教信仰自由。
9.1991
年8月,前苏共保守派发动一场妄图收回权力的政变,在人民、军队和觉醒的前苏共大多数人联合反对下宣告失败。10万人组成的上层精英讨论中,超过90%的
人不赞同共产主义。俄罗斯总统叶利钦下令宣布苏共为非法组织,并限制其在苏联境内的活动。1991年12月8日,俄罗斯、白俄罗斯和乌克兰的首脑签署协
议,以创始国的身份正式宣布苏联的已成现实的终结。1991年12月25日,前苏联总统戈尔巴乔夫宣布辞职,将国家权力移交给俄罗斯总统。前苏联正式解

Chronology of
Global Effort to Eliminate the Evil Communism
1. The spirit of
the Baltic Sea. On August 23, 1989, two million people from the Baltic
Sea region stood hand in hand to form a 600km long human chain through
Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, in order to show the shocking world their
resolve to stop the Communist dictatorship. In1990, Lithuania, Estonia
and Latvia announced their independence and marked the end of the
communist rule in the region.
2. In February 1989, Hungary
reassessed the 1956 “Hungarian Anti-Soviet Revolt” to be a “popular
uprising” and endorsed a multi-party system. In May 1989, Hungary
communist party general secretary and party president János Kádár was
ousted. In October, the legislation was adopted for multiparty
parliamentary elections. A center-right coalition government, Hungarian
Democratic Forum, won the first free parliamentary election in March
1990, marking the end of the communist rule in Hungary.
3. May
1989, Bulgaria communist government’s repression against the Muslims
caused the massive exodus of some 300,000 Muslim Bulgarian citizens.
Throughout the country, strikes and uprisings followed. In the same
year, Todor Zhivkov, Bulgaria’s communist dictator for 35 years, was
forced to resign. The absolute ruling party status of the communist
party was removed from the Constitution, and free election was adopted.
In the October 1991 election, the communist rule over Bulgaria came to
an end. Shortly after the election, Zhivkov was put on trial.
4.
August 31, 1980, a new national union “Solidarity”, which was not
controlled by the communist party, was formed in Poland. In the Eastern
European history, the “Solidarity” movement has been labeled the first
step toward freedom from the communist dictatorship. The trigger of the
“Solidarity” movement was the strike at the Gdansk Shipyard, where a
female worker was fired because she complained about the rising meat
price. The strike, led by Lech Walesa, later spread around the country
and over 10 million people participated. Back in 1970, the Polish
communist government used forces to crack down similar strikes and
uprisings. By the end of 1989, with the rapid changes taking place in
Eastern Europe, under the pressure of people’s freedom movement, the
Polish communist government was forced to negotiate with Solidarity in
the Polish Roundtable Negotiations. Walesa was elected president in the
1990 Polish legislative elections, which became one of the important
events marking the fall of communism in Poland.
5. November 1989,
First Secretary of East Berlin, Günter Schabowski announced in a radio
speech to begin the destruction of the Berlin Wall. Tens of thousands of
people immediately went to the Berlin Wall where the vastly outnumbered
border guards were forced to open access points and allow them through.
October 3, 1990 was the date of German Reunification, marking the end
of communism in East Germany. The leaders of the communist party were
charged with murder. In 1993, a 70 meter long wall was built as a
memorial to this important era in history.
6. November 1989, in
Czechoslovakia, a peaceful student demonstration in Prague sparked a
series of popular demonstrations with 2.5 million peaceful protesters.
They demanded to reassess the “Prague Spring 1968”. With the collapse of
other communist governments and increasing street protests, the
communist party of Czechoslovakia announced on November 28 that it would
relinquish power and dismantle the single-party state. December 1989,
the demonstrations continued to demand the removal of the ruling party
status of the communist party from the Constitution, and to remove the
Marxism-Leninism from the education system. In April 1990, the
“Czechoslovak Socialist Republic” changed its name to “Czech and Slovak
Federative Republic”, and adopted the legislative election. The
communist leaders, including Gustav Husak and Mikos Jakes, were ousted
and put on trial for their allowing the Soviet invasion.
7.
December 1989, Romanian dictator Ceauşescu executed the defense minister
Vasile Milea, who supported the idea of “people’s army for the people”.
Ceauşescu characterized the “Timişoara event”, where police fired at
the unarmed protesters, as a revolt. After the truth was brought to the
public, people gathered in the Revolution Square, which led to the
overthrown of the Ceauşescu government. December 25, Ceauşescu and wife
were sentenced to death by a military court on charges ranging from
illegal gathering of wealth to genocide, and were executed on the same
day. The democratic Romania has since enjoyed economic growth. By 2006,
the GDP was over 10,000 dollars.
8. March 1991, under the pressure
of the democratic demand from the general public, Albanian Party of
Labor was forced to abandon the one-party state and to adopt free
election. March 1992, Albania’s second parliamentary election saw the
fall of the Socialist Party of Albania (former Albania Communist and
Labor Party), which marked the fall of communism in Albania. Prior to
this, in the beginning of 1967, Albania Communist Party’s atheism
dictatorship banned all religious activities, of which 70% was Muslim,
20% was Albanian Orthodox Christianity, 10% was Catholic. All
monasteries and churches were forced to close. All religious ceremonies
were forbidden. After the long time effort of the democratic forces, in
November 1990, Albanians have gained back their freedom of religious
believes.
9. In August 1991, the Soviet Conservative Coup, which
involved a group of communist party members, tried belatedly to stop the
tied towards democracy. It was rejected by the general public, military
and the majority of awakened former communist party members. In a
discussion forum, which consisted of 100,000 elite members of the
society, over 90% of the whom were against communism. In November 1991,
Russian President Boris Yeltsin issued a decree banning the communist
party of Soviet Union throughout the Russian Republic. On December 8,
1991, the leaders of the Russian, Ukrainian, and Belarusian republics
met in Belavezhskaya Pushcha and signed the Belavezha Accords declaring
the dissolving of the Soviet Union and replacing it with the
Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). On December 25, 1991,
Gorbachev resigned as president of the USSR, declaring the office
extinct and ceding all the powers still vested in it to the president of
Russia: Yeltsin. This is recognized as the official dissolution of the
Soviet Union.
10. In December 1991, a referendum and the first
presidential elections took place in Ukraine, formally declaring Ukraine
as an independent state.
11. In 1997, “The Black Book of
Communism: Crimes, Terror, Repression” was first published in France,
under the title of “Le Livre noir du communisme : Crimes, terreur,
repression”. It was then published in the United States by the Harvard
University Press. It is a book which describes a history of repressions,
both political and civilian, by communist states, including genocides,
extrajudicial executions, deportations and artificial famines.

in February, 2005 in an article entitled “Turning the Wheel”. This
article, along with another article entitled “Turning the Wheel Towards

practitioners in China and around the world. The daily number of those
who quitted the CCP has increased from a few hundred to hundreds of
thousands.
16. On Feb. 22, 2005, the Global Service Center for
Quitting the CCP was established. The Service Centers aim to provide

18.
In June 2005, the book titled “Mao: The Unknown Story” by writer Jung
Chang and historian Jon Halliday was published. The book depicted Mao
using a lot of never-been-published materials. In an interview with the
Radio Free Asia, Chang said: “Mao is responsible for the deaths of 70
million Chinese people. Thirty-eight million of those died during the
famines of the Great Leap Forward from 1958-61. On a moral level, there
isn’t a single good thing to say about him. Mao is not the hero of the
Chinese people, and his portrait should not be hanging in Tiananmen
Square. The Chinese people should be told the truth about him.”
19.
In July 2005, the Global Service Center for Quitting the CCP named July

"no" to the monsters that are tearing apart people in China and
enriching themselves from others' bodies.”
29. On April 25, 2006,

millions of whom were murdered in China. Bush pointed out that “it is
important that we recall these lessons because the evil and hatred that
inspired the death of tens of millions of people in the 20th century is
still at work in the world.” “We dedicate this memorial because we have

century and ensure they're never repeated.”

1930’s the Soviet authorities forced peasants across the former USSR to
give up their privately held land and join collective farms. The Ukraine

Soviet crimes against Ukraine, to justice. Yushchenko said, “no matter
who you are, no matter how old you are, no matter what you do, what
communism wants is absolute power over you. Under this totalitarian
dictatorship, humans will forget about morality and their soul. They
will become animal-like and inhuman.” Yushchenko named May 18th the day
to commemorate political victims.
41. On May 29, 2008, the
